Ode to Youth Songtext
von Soul Track Mind

Don′t know what to say to the kids around today.
All I know is don't follow my way.
Haven′t lived my life so long, yet I've still done plenty wrong.
What a big mess I made.
Can't look you in the eye. Mirrors of truth I find.
And wasted opportunity.

Too blinded by time, I couldn′t see
All the youth slipping off of me.
Spent all my years searching for truth, oh I didn′t find it,
Now all my hope's passed on to you.
All my hope′s passed on to you.

I forgot how you're so innocent and bright, an eager rush to the fight.
All I wanna do is hold you back.
Because life is anything but a dream, nothing is what it seems.
Takes a lot of pain to find that out.
This world′s no place to be shy, don't be afraid to try,
If I knew then what I know now.


Too blinded by time, I couldn′t see all the youth slipping off of me.
Spent all my years searching for truth, oh I didn't find it,
Now all my hope's passed on to you.
All my hope′s passed on to you.

If you live the life that I could not,
I raise my glass and say that this is my,
This is my ode to the youth.

If you live the life that I could not,
I raise my glass and say that this is my,
This is my ode to the youth.

If you live the life that I could not,
I raise my glass and say that this is my,
This is my ode to the youth.

Spent all my years searching for truth, oh I didn′t find it,
Now all my hope's passed on to you.
If you live the life that I could not, I raise my glass and say
This is my ode to the youth.
This is my ode to the youth.
This is my ode to the youth.

If you live the life that I could not, I raise my glass and say
This is my ode to the youth.
